How should I put this?
procedure TUnyokedFrontendForm.OutputWriteF(const str: widestring;
values: array of variant; fg: TColor= clBlack; bg: TColor= clDefault);
var scratch: widestring;
begin
scratch := Format(str, values);
As above, I get
unyokedfrontendcode.pas(354,32) Error: Incompatible type for arg no.
2: Got "Open Array Of Variant", expected "Array Of Const"
I was caught by this one years ago, and at the time the Delphi
developers I was in contact with had no easy solution.
That's because there is no easy solution.
Format uses a different array type, they are not variants. You'll have
to convert the arrays.
Roughly translated: "look at the documentation and use the right
parameter type" :-) Thanks, now working.
